Favorite snack food

[Reverend Blair]

With, but you'd never know it by the menu choices. Mrs. Rev is sick so she opted for tomato soup. Kind of limits my options.

My favorite snack foods would be nuts(haha), Baked Lays potato chips, and 7 layer dip. Oh Nachoes too. I like pretty much anything actually. Apple and cheese slices are good as well.

Does anybody on the west coast just drink coffee? You guys should try it.

i'm with you on this one rev....i really don't enjoy the whole west-coast-coffee-express-mocha-shit stuff. can't figure it out. oh! once i was in starbucks and asked for a cup of coffee - she said they didn't have any. i laughed so hard, my daughter pretended she wasn't with me. after i recovered, i backed up to see the sign (it was in a mall) and said, ummm, when will you have coffee? in about 3.5 minutes as soon as it was made again...groan. not my idea of good customer relations.

anyhoooo, back to the west coast coffee thingee. yeah, i'm just a joe regular who wants a regular joe. my line at starbuckies. they also have no sense of ha ha there. but - there are some awesome coffee houses around for us folk who like the organic - fair traded coffee in our mugs, and plenty of them too! :wink:

you guys must have coffee houses/shops around, you just don't pay $4 for it, that's all 8)

I was in the Starbucks on Government St and was just listening to the orders, enjoying a tea. They're so funny; "large Mocha Frappa Chino", what the hell is that? It all probably tastes the same anyway. In Ottawa, where I'm headed in two days, it's the same. Coffee culture.
Back to favorite snack food. I have a sweet tooth, and just discovered Penut Butter Granola bars. Mmmmm.

Re: RE: Favorite snack food

Do you folks know the Imperial brand Cold Pack cheddar? Comes in a red and black plastic tub? It's SO sharp, it nearly makes you pucker.

Well, get a stack of soda crackers, butter, peanut butter and the cheese. Just a smidge of butter, a knife-tip of peanut butter, and a small chunk of the cheese about the size of your finger-nail.

Carb Heaven!

In fact, excuse me - I'm gonna go get some right now....

Hi all...just joined the forum. I've got to agree with Ten Packs; there's nothing quite like a little Imperial on some toasted rye...with Marmite, of course

 

[Reverend Blair]

I love that cheese. It's good in omellete too...the flavour really comes through.

 

[peapod]

Well ehm...I am eating a bucket of brushchetta, ya right out of the bucket.. with a box of rice crackers...yum yum
